== Meeting: Wednesday, February 21, 2007 == * Time: 6-8 PM * Location: bivio Software, Inc., 28th and Iris. Above Hair Elite in Suite S. There is abundant parking. We have a line up of PyCon talks. Our presenters will have a chance to practice on you, while giving you a sneak peek of what will happen in Dallas next weekend: * Fernando Perez will present his joint talk with Brian Granger, "IPython: Getting the most out of working interactively in Python": IPython (if you do not know it yet) is an enhanced interactive shell for Python. It provides a large number of features not found in the default shell that make interactive work in Python more seamless and convenient. * Jim Baker will present "Iterators in Action": Using iterators well can make your code lean and your programming fun. We will distill current best practice by investigating some (mostly) useful examples of iterators in action. Expect to see a focus on itertools and recipes from the cookbook. Other items to talk about: * BoulderSprint. We had a great JythonSprint, focusing on getting IPython to work on it. Next sprint will be in April, also on IPython. Wait a second, what's up with IPython? * Google Summer of Code. One of our missions is to mentor Pythoneers. Does it make sense to add a local component to GSoC 2007? We will have food & drink available as usual. Hope to see you there! More info: http://wiki.python.org/moin/FrontRangePythoneers
